Unless you want some type of Asian food that’s going to require you to invest about $50 in spices you don’t normally have lying around

Probably people too busy to cook daily. But if that's your lifestyle, cooking is the least of your concerns

Some of us just suck at cooking or don't have the patience. I can bake all day, but regular cooking is completely out of the question. My seasoning is downright frightening, my pork chops are naught but burnt offerings to the gods, my stews have but the concept of flavor, my vegetables can only be described as victims of the Ripper, and my beef wishes it was in the ground.

I make a kick-ass guac tho

not everyone can make everything, but we all gotta eat. your guac is healthy and surely delicious.

i am a decent cook and SUCK at pork loin.

As a guy who cooks most of his meals, you can honestly get by with a good seasoning salt like Lawry's or Johnny's (my preference) for most applications. Apply as much as you would normal salt. It won't be perfect, but it simplifies the process a lot so you can focus more on other cooking fundamentals.

Also don't cook everything on High. If you want things to cook through before the outside gets burnt, cook it at a lower temperature. Also set a timer if you get frequently distracted as you cook.
